[edit] Pic upload

Hi,

I marked your photo "N1500.jpg" you recently uploaded with the "permission" tag, as you indicated in the comments that the photo is up there with permission. Unfortunately this is not allowed on Wikipedia; our content has to be released into the public domain or licensed under the GFDL. See Wikipedia:Copyright tags. Thanks - Tempshill 21:32, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

This picture was taken by myself, and can be seen on my web site at www.video99.co.uk. I wish to release it to public domain so as to comply with the wikipedia rules, but it's not at all clear how to do this. Colin99.

[edit] SCART crosstalk

Ah, nice one. I'd always assumed that the "ghost image" was an idiosyncrasy of my TV... Fourohfour 00:28, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Betacam

Hi Colin

I found that you have edited on the Betacam article and I though to ask you something about what is stated on that article (may not be your statement but I need an advice)

The article section that talks about the speed of Betacam SP tapes states following: "Actually, tape speed is slight slower in machines working in the 625/50 format, increasing tape duration of 1 minute every 5 of nominal value. So, a 90 minute tape will record 108 minutes of images in PAL."

Wikipedia is the only place I could find so far that preciselly determines that Betacam SP PAL tapes run slower so that a 90 min tape ends up playing for 108 min. I could not find another source on this. I have talked to some technicians and although they are familiar with the concept that the tape lasts longer they could not point to exactly how long will the tape be. Do you have any experience on this. It would surely help me a lot .

This isn't a change I made (I added pictures I think), so I'm afraid I can't comment. Have another look at the history to see who may have made this change. Regards. Colin99 11:11, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
